Hello Megan~ anonymous March 17 2011, 06:23:46 UTC
Wally West learns patience from his Aunt by learning how to crochet. (His Uncle totally does it to BTW). After which he decides to make everyone hats and scarves for [insert holiday here]. Most of them match thematically, (Robin's is red/green/yellow, Kaldur's is blues/greens, SB has the "Super" logo etc. Except for M'gann. Her hat? It's Hello Kitty. KF/M'gann platonic bonding. ^_^

Bonus if Wally makes himself a red and yellow hat to try and keep who's making the hats stay a secret, but he totally gets busted. ^_^

To my regret, somewhere between reading your prompt and writing a response I forgot about your request involving Aunt Iris, so she is not included in this. I’m very sorry about that because it was my intention keep as close as possible to your original prompt, OP. I sincerely hope that what I present instead is still acceptable.Crocheting required vigilance, effort and patience to execute properly. Wally considered possessing one out of three reasonable odds, but his uncle and mentor insisted he apply himself. Barry invited him to participate in a local guild and learn the craft to improve his fine motor skills and control. He was prepared to refuse altogether because his guise as a class-act nerd was secure without the help of such a pastime, but his mother got wind of the suggestion and that was the end of that ( ... )

He held up his own project, which was supposed to be the beginning of a square that could become a potholder or a scarf if he was ambitious. What it really resembled was a rat’s nest.

“That’s…”

“Lame, I know,” Wally said, snapping, and moped ( ... )

He ended up coming back after the fourth seminar, but only because he wasn’t finished with the second leg warmer. Wally didn’t enjoy leaving projects half finished. That was all. If he just so happened to put the finishing touches on it and begin crocheting a hat, then that was to prevent the early onset of boredom ( ... )

M’gann was the first to discover the one he’d secretly given, setting aside the Easy Bake Oven to pick up a nondescript package stuffed deep under the tree. He’d sneaked them in as far back as when they’d bought the faux-pine tree days ago. Her face lit up at the Hello Kitty beret, a tiny bow adorning it, and she squealed with delight. She held it close to her chest, marveling at the soft feel in comparison to her organic attire ( ... )

“Oh! Hello, Wally,” she started, seeming embarrassed to be caught. “I…I was trying to… It’s so silly, but I wanted to try my hand at making clothes. I know I can form my own.” And she did, demonstrating for him again how she could control the attire she wore, it being literally a second skin. “But this seems much more personal. I’d love to make presents, too! This is complicated, though ( ... )

This was perfect! Even without Aunt Iris, it was perfect! The leg warmers (hello anon! He totally would make them for himself), and how he doesn't just make hats for everyone, but little personalized things! And Wally helping M'gann at the end.... So cute!

And this line? "She demonstrated using a skull and crossbones on her own project, reciting that she worried her oldest son got cold when he rode on his Harley. Apparently she knew this from experience, since she owned two of her own." I love you. How did you know what kind of Grandma I want to be when I grow up? XD

So, yeah, this is amazing. Just so you know. Thank you so much!

As a person required to valiantly defend myself against constant suggestions that I should learn to knit, I didn't expect to enjoy this nearly as much as I did.
Bravo, anon, bravo. It was sweet, cute, and I totally sympathized with Wally at the beginning and adored his reasons for still coming back even when he doesn't need to. Thank you, anon! This was great!

(This is because of where you live, it can't be helped. You will eventually succumb, I fear)

I too loved this fill, it was adorable- and oh GOD, I'd love to see what Megan does with the place! :3
